The boat has a draft of 6.25 ft (1.91 m) with the standard keel. Three additional keels were available, a shoal draft keel, a winged keel and a semi-elliptical deep-fin version with a terminal weighted bulb. The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 2GM20 diesel engine.[1]

The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 129 with a high of 132 and low of 129. It has a hull speed of 7.05 kn (13.06 km/h).[2]
